Hi Ash , Thanks for the info , I was given a part No 51442 319 000 from DS but as it may turn out that I might not have K1 Forks but K3 .I am looking into this now . The sliders look the same but the stanchions are different .It is very difficult to identify parts from different years being fitted over the life of the bike .If it turns out mine are incorrect I will let you know .Thanks again , Alan .
Hi James , That's right .Got the pistons out but they do not fit the new stanchions from DS . It looks like they need machining out or honing out a few thou to go on , At least I have all the parts now thank God .
Hi Ash, The funny thing is that the old extended stanchions are chromed all the way down but the pistons fit a treat ? .So what you are saying is that I should machine the stanchions to fit the pistons , sounds logical to me ,Cheers , Alan .
